the heavy body trick

:) Chi must be accompanied by time. hence you add the time factor "t" to the the "chi" factor and you get "chit".

And with enough "chit" you can fool almost anyone. :)

Water to wine has been done before, but water to s*it???

According to my Feng Shui book water can indeed produce good qi, if used right... :-) And as Bruce Lee said: "Be like water, my friend."

OTOH:

I just can't believe it.

Let me simplify what other lesser men responded. Things feel heavier when they are harder to grip.Period.

The real profit comes from the "ahipping and handling".

Nothing makes it heavier; it weights exactly the same. The difference is in your ability to apply force to lift it.

Back in the day, people didn't understand as much about the world around them, so they would make up things like "chi" to explain what they could not otherwise comprehend.

Now, if they don't understand something, they "do science to it" and come up with an answer..

I am SO sending the ghost of Julius Sumner Miller after your sorry ass... [begins incantations]

:D

what words do you use to describe everything you can't comprehend?

Hal

Stop projecting your failings onto other people.

it's a legitimate question. You claim "chi is a made-up thing to explain what they could not otherwise comprehend". So are you all-knowing? Doubt it. If not, then what words do you have made up to explain what you cannot otherwise comprehend? It's easy. Even you should be able to get it. List a few. Go ahead.

Hal

No, it is a particularly lame attempt at projection.

e comprehend". =A0

Yes, because clearly in the case presented, the "extra weight" is due to mundane physics without any need for any additional construct such as "chi" to explain it.

Nope; it just seems that way in comparison to you.

Good, that is a glimmer of intelligence in the otherwise dark depths of your stupidity.

None whatsoever beyond the age of four or five.

Agreed; which is why people like you are so willing to do it.

We agree that anyone can do it. Your failing is in your inability to

no be ridiculous. I'm just baiting you. Whatsamatter, afraid to give it a try?

of course you are.

and think of a word you use to explain things beyond your comprehension.

whatever are you babbling about now? Go ahead. Be a man. Give it a try. What is something you cannot comprehend and what word do you use to describe it? Go ahead, punk. Make my day.

Hal

Baiting me to give an example of me doing something that *you* routinely do... right, Hal - that makes a whole heap of sense...

Riiight.

wise comprehend". =A0

I generally use something along the lines of "unknown", or "undefined".

Delusional moron.

Okay... okay... whenever I cannot determine the value of a column in a row of data... I call it NULL!!

Oh, the shame!

what on Earth are you babbling about? You claimed chi was a made up term used to describe something beyond people's comprehension. I asked you for an example of a word you use for things that are beyond your comprehension. Do you not understand the question? Or you afraid to play? Come on punk. Are you feeling lucky?

Hal

A limp human is almost impossible to pick up. I've been there, done that. When the liftee makes himself rigid, it's like lifting a heavy board. When he lets himself go limp, it's more like lifting a bag of water.

Hope This Helps! Rich

Apparently, nobody's told you about the handles yet. ;-)

The flow of Chi is continuous - the difference is in how well you're able to recognize its subtleties - IOW, to "notice" it. ;-)
